Discover Gaudi’s Masterpieces, one of the must things to do in Barcelona

Gaudi Tour – Full Day

The best that Barcelona has to offer is, of course, Gaudí, and the Sagrada Família is the #1 highlight. We can visit just the Basilica or include the Towers for a stunning view.

Other main attractions designed by Gaudí include Park Güell, La Pedrera (also known as Casa Milà), and Casa Batlló. In this full-day tour, you can visit all of them.

You also have the option to personalize your tour based on your interests. We can combine some of Gaudí’s buildings with other parts of the city, like the Old Town, or visit Gaudí along with the Palau de la Música. Please send us your preferred combination, and we’ll let you know if it’s doable!

During the visit, you’ll have time for lunch. The cost of lunch isn’t included, and since your guide will be with you during this time, you’ll cover their lunch as well. If you have any food preferences or allergies, just let us know so we can accommodate you!

 Verified Excellent experience touring Barcelona with Javier With a city as bustling and rich in history as Barcelona, you need a really excellent tour guide, imho. Javier met and exceeded that requirement. We had a group of 4 - 2 moms and 2 college age teens and were booked with Javier for 3 days. He is incredibly personable, knows *the best* places to eat and his history and experience with the city greatly enriched our time there.

 Verified Barcelona Private Tour Guide Javier The most perfect day spent in Barcelona was a Gaudi Premium tour with Javier. He outlined our day before the tour started, giving us a brief history of Spain and the areas that we would visit. Our tour included Park Guell, La Pedrera, Casa Ballo. The best part was our visit to Sagrada Familia. We bought tickets in advance from Barcelona Private Tour Guide. This was grexcellent t because we did t have to wait in any long lines.Sagrada Familiar is breath taking. Javier pointed out allow of magnificent figures on the outside of the cathedral. To mention a few, Mary, Joseph, baby Jesus, the Last Supper, & Angels, The inside of Sagrada Familia was absolutely beautiful with stained glass in every color. Javier's knowledge of Gaudi'genius was incredible. The day passed by too quickly. If you want the best tour guide in Barcelona go to BarcelonaBestPrivateTour website and ask for Javier

 Verified Gaudi Architecture Half Day Tour Javier was very knowledgeable about Gaudí architecture and showed me every detail. Javier made me realize how interesting Gaudí architecture is and I fell in love with it even more. They explain everything in Japanese, so I recommend them to those who want to know more about Gaudi architecture.

 Verified Insightful, knowledgable and inspiring tours! I, my family and friends so enjoyed a tour of Sagrada Familia led by Javier back in 2018 on my first visit to Barcelona that I rang him to lead another on my most recent visit. This time we also included Park Guell, which was fantastic. It was wonderful to see the work progress on Sagrada Familia over 6 years and, as always, Javier's knowledge, insight and personal experience working on the cathedral years ago make his stories come to life. Javier has great energy and is very good at reading his audience and adjusting to their needs. He also can help you take high quality photos! His tours are not inexpensive and are worth every Euro.

 Verified Barcelona Tour April 2025 Nasi From Florida,We had a wonderful 2 day tour with Javier. He is a very knowledgeable guide and very nice person, extremely helpful. We learned a lot About the beautiful city of Barcelona. My friend and I definitely recommend him if you are interested to learn a lot in a short period of time. We even got very lucky and saw the the Men towers in front of Sagrada Familia. This was a privet tour, practically no wait, Javier got our tickets in advance.

 Verified A truly enriching experience. Highly recommended! We were only in Barcelona for three days, so we had to be selective about what to see and balance it with time to relax, stroll, and enjoy this wonderful city. This Gaudí tour was perfect—it covered everything at the top of our list and gave us a deep, thoughtful look into Gaudí’s work and his life. Javier was phenomenal—clearly someone who has immersed himself in Gaudí’s world for much of his life, and it truly shows. A truly enriching experience. Highly recommended!
